Association of Hemoglobin Decrement During Hospitalization with Prognosis of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Mediation Effects of Cerebral Infarction and Pneumonia.

Background: Hemoglobin decrement is a common complication after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and is associated with poor outcome. However, the mediating variables on the causal pathway between hemoglobin decrement and poor outcome in aSAH are not clear.

Methods: This is a single-center retrospective observational study containing all consecutive patients with aSAH admitted to our hospital between January 1, 2019, and June 30, 2022.

Rasd1 is involved in white matter injury through neuron-oligodendrocyte communication after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Aims: Rasd1 has been reported to be correlated with neurotoxicity, metabolism, and rhythm, but its effect in case of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remained unclear. White matter injury (WMI) and ferroptosis participate in the early brain injury (EBI) after SAH. In this work, we have investigated whether Rasd1 can cause ferroptosis and contribute to SAH-induced WMI.

Neuropharmacological efficacy of metformin for stroke in rodents: A meta-analysis of preclinical trials.

Stroke, including ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), remains a leading cause of mortality globally. Different stroke subtypes have similar detrimental effects in multiple fields of health. Previous research has shown that metformin plays a neuroprotective role in experimental animal models of stroke; however, a preclinical quantitative analysis on the ability of metformin to treat stroke is still lacking.

Hepcidin Promoted Ferroptosis through Iron Metabolism which Is Associated with DMT1 Signaling Activation in Early Brain Injury following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

Iron metabolism disturbances play an important role in early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and hepcidin largely influences iron metabolism. Importantly, iron metabolism may be associated with ferroptosis, recently a nonapoptotic iron-dependent form of cell death that may have a great impact on brain injury after SAH. We investigated hepcidin on iron metabolism and ferroptosis involving divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), and ferroportin-1 (FPN1) in a rat model of SAH.

Thioredoxin-interacting protein mediates mitochondrion-dependent apoptosis in early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Early brain injury (EBI) was reported to be the primary cause of high mortality and poor outcomes in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients, and apoptosis is regarded as the most important physiopathologic mechanism during EBI. Recently, our team found that thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) links endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) to neuronal apoptosis and aggravates EBI. However, the other underlying mechanisms remain unknown.

Thioredoxin-interacting protein links endoplasmic reticulum stress to inflammatory brain injury and apoptosis after subarachnoid haemorrhage.

Background: Early brain injury (EBI) is considered a major contributor to the high morbidity and mortality associated with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Both of sterile inflammation and apoptosis are considered the important causes of EBI. Recently, it was confirmed that thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) not only participates in inflammatory amplification but also stimulates the apoptosis signalling cascade pathway.

Thioredoxin-Interacting Protein Mediates Apoptosis in Early Brain Injury after Subarachnoid Haemorrhage.

Early brain injury (EBI) is considered to be the major factor associated with high morbidity and mortality after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Apoptosis is the major pathological mechanism of EBI, and its pathogenesis has not been fully clarified. Here, we report that thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), which is induced by protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum (ER) kinase (PERK), participates in EBI by promoting apoptosis.
